Year-long Constitution Row Nearing End
(Editor’s Note: This is the first in a series 01 live articles dealing with tne new Constitution tnat students will vote on Wednesday and Thursday.)
By ELLIOT ZWIEBACH “Abolish Student Government.”
Ever since John Betinis made this demand almost a year ago, USC has been embroiled in a long and complicated series of events that will be climaxed when students cast their votes for or against the new ASSC Constitution next week.
Student leaders have been decrying the sorry plight of student government for a long time, so it was not surprising that many of last year’s ASSC presidential aspirants expressed dismay over the legislative body they hoped to head.
First to toss his Trojan helmet into the political arena was Gordon Strachan. who expressed alarm at “the drift of student government towards weak, ineffective, faction-dominated petty politics.”
Bob Oates, second presidential hopeful, entered the race "to break the hold of ‘machine’ politics in student government.”
Concern over student indifference to the gov-
ernment was expressed by Roger Rosendahl, the third to offer hope for a better future. He pledged to raise the level of student government by expanding its efforts in cultural and academic fields.
Other candidates—Harry Arnold, Chuck Williams and Roderigo Melendez — each in turn pledged to improve student government if and when elected. But the bombshell hit on March 3, when medical student John Betinis announced his intention to run.
The self-styled “mysterv candidate” made his first public utterance on M arch 11 in protest against limiting polling places to one centralized area. “If sturlent government is not to be trusted r>ast the setting un of one nnlling place, then this is a sorry indictment of student government.
Four weeks later the “mystery” of Betinis’ campaign was solved when he denounced the ASSC government as “nonrepresentative, ineffectual.
immature and incurably worthless.”
Rosendahl’s faith that student government could be effective prompted Betinis to call his opponent “immature and ineffectual” like the government. Oates called Betinis’ plan reminiscent of a child “who kicks his toy because it won’t run.” Strachan joined in the fracas, saying, “The cure for a sick person is not a bullet through the head—as a medical student, Betinis should know that. Betinis’ crackpot idea only clarifies his ignorance of the need and purpose for student government on our campus.”
Finally Election Day, April 16, arrived. The results: Strachan, 1,490; Rosendahl, 1,135; Betinis, 857.
Betinis’ hopes were reborn, however, when Rosendahl was disqualified by the Election Board of Inquiry for campaign infractions. But when Strachan. too. faced disqualification, the Election Eoard invalidated the election and reinstated Rosendahl, thus eliminating Betinis again.
When Betinis lodged a formal protest, the board decided to open the election to write-in candidates to be “fair” to all involved. Using the circumstances to his own advantage, Betinis issued the following statement: “If ever there
were a true indictment of student government, if ever my campaign for abolishment of this ridiculous, comi-tragedy institution were justified, it is by the action of the Election Board.
“The student body cannot afford any more not to look at the facts. The facts point to the absolute necessity to abolish this cancerous growth that has infected our campus for so long.
“When such a growth is allowed to linger in a person, the entire body becomes infected. This is what is happening at USC. We must cut off the growth; we must abolish student government.”
The results of the election seemed to justify Betinis’ faith in the students, for he and Strachan made the runoffs. On May 14, John Betinis was overwhelmingly elected, 1.498 to 906.
“1 promise a new high in campus cultural and intellectual life at USC,” he said in his first statement as president-elect. “But first we must dispose of the greatest stumbling block to this progress —the ASSC Senate.
“I shall soon present a plan by which we can constitutionally vote the senate out of existence and replace it with an effective representative advisory group for which all students will be eligible, including ex-senators.”
